POLICE COURT PiCKISCS.
Sent On for Observation-Disclosures
Important Matters.

James Twyman, a colored youth
about nineteen years old, was charged
with breaking into the grocery store of
j. Il. Elan, corner OF Marshall aud
Twenty. seventh streets, in the night
time OF July l3, 1887, and stealing n
banjo, one lot of cigars, &C, and the
money-drawer, containing five or SIX
dollars. The store was eutered by the
wire screen over the front door being
priced of and one of the large panes
Of glass broken. All of the things
were missed next morning except the
banjo, the absence of which was not
noticed until few days afterward,
when its owner called for it. The in
strument was found i'll the possession of
a colored man. who gave the name of
George johnson, but who was identi-
fed by Sergeant Tomlinson and others
as Icum Henley, who has served seye-
raj terms in Jail. johnson said he got
the banjo from Tvyman, and there be-
ing other evidence TO sustain the
charge he was sent on to the grand
Jury. johnson is now serving a term
IN lall III deiault Oh surety.
DIsoRDERLY CHARACTERS.
Much of the time of the Court was
consumed in hearing testimony in the
case of about dozen cOlored girls and
women charged with being disorderly
and fighting, and creating a dis
turbance, to the annoyance OF the
neighborhood, and of keeping and
maintaining a disorderly house. The
evidence, as usual in such cases, was
quite conflicting. The Justice, how
ever, after patienthearing, announced
his decision, requiring Annie Gregory,
Rosa Thompson, Kate Walker, and
Virginia johnson to give security
for twelve months in the sum of $500
continuing the charges against Ann
smith and Julia Lewis until Saturday
with the understanding that if by that
time they moved from the neighbor-
hood they will be discharged the
others were discharged with admoni
ton.
